Description
The Porsche 911, a car that has become an unmistakable icon since its debut in 1963, embodies everything a classic sports car should be, setting the benchmark for others: elegance, speed, and innovation. When the 911 first rolled off the production line in 1965, it immediately set the standard for what a sports car should be. Its timeless design and groundbreaking technology, such as a 2. 0-liter air-cooled six-cylinder boxer engine and a refined five-speed transmission, made it a favorite among car enthusiasts worldwide. The 911 was more than just a car; it was Porsche's philosophy expressed in every detail: a commitment to precision and performance. With rave reviews from leading publications, the 911 was quickly regarded as one of the best Gran Turismo cars in the world.
Now, nearly 60 years later, this particular 1965 Porsche 911 2. 0 is not only a tribute to that heritage but also a standard-setter for other examples thanks to an extremely careful and thorough restoration.
This stunning 1965 Porsche 911 2. 0 is a Porsche with a quality that we would love to have more of in our collection. Originally delivered by Competition Motors in Culver City, California, on October 19, 1965, this example is not only one of the early models from the 302 chassis number series, but also a carefully preserved example that has been meticulously restored and overhauled.
What makes this Porsche extra special is that it is in concours condition thanks to an extensive and meticulous "bare metal" restoration by a renowned Belgian Porsche specialist. The car has been completely restored to its original glory, and in some areas even improved upon compared to when it left the factory. Every detail, from the original 'Sandbeige 6607 B' paint to the black vinyl interior, has been restored with care and precision. The result is a car that not only looks like it just rolled off the production line, but is also technically perfect.
What makes this Porsche 911 even more unique is the rare, factory-delivered electric sunroof, an option that was rarely ordered at the time but is now incredibly popular. This example is fully matching numbers and comes with a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, confirming the car's authenticity, including the rare options and original engine block.
Since the restoration, this 911 has only driven 300 kilometers, which means we are essentially dealing with a brand-new example. The restoration is extensively documented with numerous photos and invoices, providing an invaluable source of information for the serious collector. Looking at the exterior, we can be brief: the car is flawless, carefully rebuilt, and the paint is applied with unmatched quality. All details have been meticulously restored and are entirely correct. The interior is also so beautiful, down to the smallest details, that it is clear we are dealing with a Porsche 911 in absolute concours condition. Under the hood and underneath the car, even the most seasoned purist will be convinced that this is an exceptionally fine example.
For the true Porsche enthusiast, this car is more than just a classic sports car; it is a work of art on wheels, symbolizing craftsmanship and precision. With its immaculate appearance, original and correct specifications, and unparalleled driving performance, this example is undoubtedly one of the finest Porsche 911s of its kind currently available. A rare opportunity for those seeking the very best that the world of classic cars has to offer.
